Who Requires
Spark
Players
Require Spark to build and develop their properties and neighborhoods. Coming in 2024, players will also use Spark to charge their virtual vehicles for means of travel (a core metaverse mechanic) or leisure (e.g. racing).
Creators
Spark is used as a resource for the creation of user-generated content (“UGC”) NFTs. Upland Entrepreneurs also use Spark for the no-code manufacturing (minting) of virtual assets that can be traded with other players.
Builders
Require Spark to build structures on their properties, which currently include: Houses, Apartment Buildings, Factories, Stadiums, Cafes, Show Rooms, and Speedway Pole Structures.
Founders
Require Spark to build shops, factories, and showrooms to facilitate their “Metaventures” – player-owned businesses – that serve as specialized primary and secondary market shops in the economy.
Partners
Need Spark in a similar fashion to Upland Entrepreneurs. The partner/brand creates virtual assets that would be offered to players for purchase during events, in mini-games, and competitions. Spark powers the partner’s/brand’s metaverse strategy for fan engagement, co-creation, and monetization in the open metaverse.
Developers
Require Spark to establish map presence via “Dev Shops”  (unique constructions which allow players to discover and launch the developers’ offering from within the Upland map) for visibility. Spark fuels the implementation of their zero-code web3 and NFT strategy using the Upland platform.

Fantastic idea to have sparks tradable on external markets. The 1000 sparklers per spark is also a great idea. Good luck in getting the go ahead to complete this mission. I am with you all the way. Bob.
